PARIS, Nov. 5.-The report of the
committee appointed to inquire into the
Caffarel scandal was discussed in the
chamber of deputies to-day. NJ. Bauday
d'ASsOn declared that it was not de-
mand for an inquiry but for the prose-
cutiOn Of M. Wilson, which should be
submitted to the chamber, the abuses
in connection with seals and stamps be-
ing punishable by from six months to
three years imprisonment. He asked
NJ. ROuvier, the prime minister, to ex-
plain the case of NJ. Wilson. M. ROuvier
in reply said that all the documents had
d been placed in the hands of the minister
of justice. The discussion was general,
and closed amid great excitement. Nj.
Colfavru moved that the inquiry be gen.
eral and that it extend back as far as
May, 1887. so as to include the time of
the advent of the De Broglie ministry.
NJ. ROuvier, answering NJ. d'OrnandO,
denied that the politicians had leveled
the scandals against President Grevy.
dApplause from the center and murmurs
from the extreme left Nobody thought
of accusing the cabinet of interfering
with the freedom of the judicial power.
The magiStracy was above suspicion.
He was not possessed of the details re-
SdrQ1ng the safe OF decorations. OlutI
facts were undeniable, but they did not
prove the necessity for an inquiry.
[CommOtion.] The presidents acts
were always indorsed by minister;
therefore the ministers were responsible
for all such matters. Interpretations
could be addressed to them on matters
for which they were responsible.
but questions beyond the province of
parliament came within the jurisdiction
of the judicial power. On these grounds
he was opposed to an inquiry. He ad-
mitted the justice of the feeling which
inspired the chamber, but thought it
was better to let matters take their nat
ural course. A great uprOar followed
the conclusion of NJ. ROuvier's speech.
When order had been restored Nj. Col
favru'S motion was carried by vote of
264 to 257. NJ. JoliboiS explained that
the right, though in favor of an inquiry,
opposed NJ. COlfavru's motion because
they considered it was directed against
the accuSerS rather than against the
guilty. He moved to give the commits
sion the widest powers. Nj. Calfavru
spoke in opposition. The motion was
finally carried by vote of SIS to 1S4.
The committees report was then
adopted, AS to 81.

What the Register Of the Treas
uPV Has to Saw,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5. Register
to the secretary of the treasury to-day.
He presents number of tables showing
the financial operations of the treasury,
and suggests several changes in the
present methods of bookkeeping in the
department. The total amount of regis
tered bonds outstanding is stated at
1898, 493, ,312, of which S212,415, $50 are
held by the treasurer in trust for ma
tiOnal banks; S670, ,076, ,062 are in the
hands of domestic holders, and S11,001,-
500 or I.23 per cent of the entire amount
are held by foreigners. The register
recommends the establishment of di-
vision of balances for the purpose of
keeping record of balances in final ac-
counts with all persons having financial
dealings with the government. He calls
attention to the fact that the absence of
individual accounts with distributing Of
ficerS of the army and navy very largely
increases the possibility of such losses
as these by PaymaSter Hodge and Capt.
HOWgate, etc, and recommends that
personal accounts be required to be
opened and kept on the books of the
registers office. He also calls attention
to the immense and increasing receipts
and expenditures of the postoffice de-
partment and the fact that the SuperyiS-
ion of the receipts and expenditures of
that department, amounting to upwards
of s1OO,O00,0OO is laid upon a single aud
itOr, and says that of all the fifty odd
millions Of dollars collected for post
ages and paid out to defray the ex-
penseS of the postal service, there is no
warrant in history. The report suggests
that this departure from the general
rule, requiring all moneys received
into and paid out of the treasury to be
by warrant, is anomalous and ought to

NORFOLK, Va, Nov. 5.-A distressing
accident, by which twelve or more per-
SONS lost their lives, happened in Pas
quotank sound, North Carolina, Thurs
day night. The schooner Ocean Bird,
Capt. Daniels, with passengers from

latter port for Elizabeth. The vessel
failed to reach her destination yester-
day, and searching parties were organ
lied, one of which found an upturned
boat of the schooner adrift in the sound.
From the condition of the boat it is
thought the schooner was capSized by a
squall and Immediately sank, and that
all on board perished. Besides Capt.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-All the political
parties applied the closing touches to
the campaign in this county tonight.
Meetings of all political shades were
held and addresses made by prominent
local operators at different points
throughout the city. There was no lack
of enthusiasm apparent at any of the
meetings, and all parties are apparently
sanguine OF electing their candidates
on Tuesday. Among the more cOnserv-
ative, however. the opinion is general
that the Republican state ticket will be
successful owing to the loss of Demo
cratic voters on account Of the labor
ticket in this and Kings county.
There is very little inter

The local contest has been hot one as
far as the district Attorney is concerned.
Capt. Fellows is Sanguine of election, as
are all his adherents. His opponent,
Mr.. NicolI. and his sympathizers are
fully as sanguine of carrying the cleo

about S10G to $50 on Fellows. These of

A REIGN OF TERROR.
Caused by the Shocking Depreda-
tions of Mexican Bandits.

BROWNSVILLE, Tex. Nov. 5.-A reign
of terror exists in the up-river border
counties between Edinburg and Roma,
the result of the shocking depredations
of Mexican bandits. Since the abduc-
ton of Senior Barara, whose friends had
to pay 81, 800 ransom, almost every mer-
chant has received threatening letters
ordering payment of heavy sums on
penalty of abduction and torture. The
wealthy never travel without a heavy
guard The border SheriffS, who are
poorly paid, are doing what they can
with their deputies to hunt the robbers
down, and a small force of rangers has
been sent by Gov. Ross to Rio Grande
City, but it is feared that the whole
force is not strong enough to round the
bandits up in such long extent of wild
bottom and wooded country. District
Judge J. c. Russell, who is a large
ranch owner in Stair county, acknOWl-
edged that the civil authorities were
unable to cope with the matter.
In the meantime the bandits are
day at high noon they entered the Ha-
vana ranch, in Hidalgo county, place
of about 500 inhabitants, surrounded the
store of Magdelino Flores, drove the oc-
cupantS out, and robbed the place Of
every bit of goods it contained They
then tore off the doors, smashed the
windows, and threatened to return and
sack and burn every house in the place.
The band numbered twenty-One men.
The day before another party of band
its, about twenty strong, attacked the
AttasOsca ranch, on the San Juan river,
few miles above CamargO, Mexico, and
sacked the place, abusing and Outraging
the people. They were pursued by
Mexican cavalry, under Capt. Lamad-
rido. and Plasuelas, a leader, and an
other bandit was secured. PlaSuelas
was executed at Camargo yesterday
morning and the other will suffer the
same fate. LamadridO, an active officer,
has at his command all the men that he
wants, and gets step in the ranks for
every bandit captured. President DiaZ
has ordered that the severeSt measures
be used to put down banditage on the

of this military district, is anxious to CO.

CHOLERA LET LOOSE.
No Provisions Made for Prevent
ing Its Spread.


NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-The Commercial
Advertiser this afternoon publishes an
article in which it says: THE quaran-
tine regulations, which are supposed t0
prevent any outside communication with
the cholera-tainted passengers on Swim
burne and Hoffman islands, are appar-
emily not effective. BY the statement
of an inmate of one of the hospitals, a
man confined On Hospital island was
taken away last week by a boat
man. The paper gives a lengthy
interview with bOatman who rOwed
down to Hoffman island on Sunday
night for the purpose of selling some
wares. The bOatman states that he had
no trouble in approaching the island;
that there was no police boat in the VII
cinity; that he sold his goods, took sew
eral letters from quarantined passengers
for posting and was offered $50 to take
one of the men off, and that he refused.

of the place rests entirely with DR.. Smith,
the board officer. If l knew where the man
could be found l would take some very
prompt action, but do not. and am, there
fore practically helpless.
F. Mayor Hewitt to-day sent letter to
President Cleveland, calling his atten-
tion to the fact that two cholera infected
ships are detained at this port by the
quarantine commissioners. The mayor
says that there is feeling in this COM
munity that greater care is necessary in
order to protect the city and country at
large from the consequences OF the land
ing of passengers who may have the
germs of disease. Further immigration
from Italy at this time, the mayor says,
should be prohibited, and the president
is urged to make such friendly repre-
sentatiOnS to the Italian government as
will secure greater precautions in the
clearance of vessels from cholera
regions until the disease has disappeared
